Classical music helps a person to be disciplined in all respects and also brings a person closer to Gods, especially when performed in one's own mother tongue. Above all, the classical music as an art form occupies the peak position among all forms of art.
Indian Music refines one's soul and emotions, because it has been subjected to a Grammar of Music. Therefore, parents, schools and churches can play an effective role in moulding the children of the present generation to carry forward the rich traditions of Indian Music. It is our responsibility to help our children learn, attain perfection and emerge as musicians and composers, which will contribute to the integration of this country, in the near future.
Composers such as Vedanayagam Sastriar, Abraham Pandithar, H.A. Krishna Pillai, P.A. Sathiasatchy, Dayanandan Francis and several others have composed brilliant lyrics for us. But, how many of those lyrics are being sung in our churches these days? It is paining to note that the art of singing of Keerthanais among our children is fading away.
So, let all of us revive and restore our glorious Keerthanais and sing them with real rhythm and flavor. Let us prepare our children to attain this.
For this purpose, the book of music, 'Yesu Pugazh Paaduvom' is the only book consisting of some of the best music composed by many stalwarts of music, which will be very useful in learning how to sing our traditional Keerthanais.
